    Cutwater 32 Battery charging question

    I am a newbie with a 2023 cutwater 32. I would like to know if the outboard starter batteries are being charged while connected to shore power if the battery switches are in the OFF position.

    LifePo4 and A/C Components

    I recently purchased a 2019 R-23. I would like to install LifePo4 batteries, battery charger, inverter, and a/c. I’m curious of the make and models of each that you are currently installing in your new R-23’s. I’d like to install the same equipment the factory is. Thank you.

    Windless Bow Pedals

    I have a 2019 31CB. The pedals for the windless on the bow stopped working. I looked in the anchor locker and two wires were hanging free. They are the connection back to the controller. Where do these terminate and how do I get to that point? The anchor system works fine from the helm.
